A Rare Abstract Photograph!

Abstract photo. July, 2019.

Abstract photography appeals to me. Conceptually, I like the contradiction between the idea of a photograph, which is supposed to represent concrete reality, and turning it into something unrecognizable, yet still visually appealing.

I don't get many chances to shoot abstract photos, but I love it when I happen to catch a "winner." It also forces me to experiment with new processing techniques to find the most visually compelling image that I can.

I could tell you what this is a photograph of, but that would defeat the purpose, don't you think? Much better to say, it's whatever you want it to be!
